Gigaro - Provençal Bastide - commanding sea view - gated com

CO-EXCLUSIVE - There are houses that were built. And there are houses that were loved. This one belongs firmly in the second category -- and you feel it the moment you walk through the door. The owners built this bastide themselves. Stone by stone, decision by decision, to make it their family home. Not an investment, not a property project -- a place to live. A place where children grew up, where grandchildren ran through the garden, where summers followed one another with the quiet steadiness of somewhere that matters. Decades of love and memories within these walls. That story is written everywhere: in the warmth of the exposed beams, in the generous ceiling heights, in the way every room opens onto the landscape. This house has a soul. And that is something no architect in the world can draw to order. The position is outstanding. Set high within one of Gigaro's most sought-after gated estates, with private access down to the beaches of Gigaro and Héraclée. The commanding view reaches across the sea to the Îles du Levant, in a south to south-west orientation that catches the setting sun all year round. From the terrace, from the living room, from the upstairs bedroom -- the spectacle is constant, and it never grows old. The bastide spans approximately 200 sqm. The entrance opens onto a vast living room under exposed beams -- the kind of room where you settle in and never want to leave. A dining room, an open kitchen, a back kitchen. And that outdoor terrace with its open-air fireplace, designed for family barbecues, for summer evenings that stretch long into the night. Two bedrooms with shower rooms on the ground floor. Upstairs, a mezzanine leads to a suite with bathroom and balcony -- a space suspended between sky and sea. The garden level houses the double garage, a crawl space, and the pool plant room. And then there is the garden manucured. Seven thousand two hundred square metres. The owners planted it themselves over the years, with patience and love. Lawn areas -- rare at this elevation -- alternate with shaded zones that give every occupant of the house their own private corner. This is a garden designed to be lived in, not looked at. And extension possibilities allow you to imagine the next chapter without altering what already exists. The silence here is the first thing that strikes you. No noise, no through traffic, no intrusive neighbours. And yet Gassin, Ramatuelle, and Saint-Tropez are reachable in minutes along a road that is never congested. The beaches of Gigaro and Héraclée are just below, via the estate's private path. It's this combination -- the stillness of a retreat and the proximity of everything -- that makes this location so valuable. Especially since plot division is prohibited within the estate. What stands today will stand tomorrow. Nothing will change. And beyond the garden, an entire landscape opens up. The bastide's position gives direct access to natural trails that wind through vineyards, scrubland, and forest. On foot, by bike, running, with the dog -- you're in wild, unspoilt countryside steps from your front door. No pavements, no housing estates -- just the earth, the vines, birdsong, and the scent of pines. The kind of setting people dream of when they picture Provence, except here it's everyday life. This is a gem. The word is overused in real estate, but here it fits. This bastide resembles nothing else on the market. It carries something that new builds can never offer: time, memories, and the particular warmth of a house that was built to last. Risk information for this property is available at: www.georisques.gouv.fr -- This property is located in a mandatory brush-clearing zone.
